Only five more weeks to Inauguration Day. You won't want to miss the excitement and pageantry. The dinners, the Inauguration itself, the parades, the balls, great fun, great fellowship and great memories to last a lifetime!
|
And less than two weeks left to get your early bird reduced price tickets to the Free Republic W2 Inaugural Ball featuring Gov. Huckabee and Capitol Offense.
About half of those who signed up to get their tickets at the $175 price have submitted their orders. Order your tickets now before the price goes up to $200 after December 26. We want to make sure that everyone who requested tickets has a chance to attend the ball at the initial reduced price.
We're posting this message as a reminder before folks start their Christmas travels next week. BTW, W2 Inaugural Ball tickets make great stocking stuffers for the conservatives in your family!
Hope to see you at the Ball!!
Thank you very much,
Jim Robinson, Kristinn and the W2 Inaugural Ball Committee
P.S. This event is not a fundraiser for FR. It's priced to (hopefully) at least break even.
P.P.S. If you can't go to the ball, but would like to help someone else get there, please donate to our ticket discount fund and or to our general ball fund. Donations are being accepted to help cover the costs of inviting honored guests such as wounded members of our armed forces recuperating at Walter Reed Army Medical Center and Bethesda Naval Hospital. We've already received enough in donations to get at least four or five soldiers and guests to the ball and to offer discounts to several others. We'd like to invite as many as we possibly can.
Hi Jim,
A question from a rightwinger from the Left Coast, deep in the heart of the People's Republic of California...do you know of any local celebrations that will take place?
I'm not too far from the Reagan Library (Simi Valley), and I know that some FReepers were there during the memorial week, I'm kinda curious. As much as I would love to go to D.C. for this, finances dictate that an alternate plan is needed.
Thanks for all of your work, and I hope everyone has a great time.
No, but you might check with Rabid Dog
or DoughtyOne.
Great! Thank you very much! See you at the ball!
bump. Really looking forward to meeting a bunch of ya'll to celebrate four more years of adults in charge.

Running out of excuses?
Excuses Based Upon Commitments To:
FRIENDS, NEIGHBORS, RELATIVES
My sister asked to come over to sleep on my pullout couch tonight. Her apartment floors were refinished today and she is afraid of the fumes.
I need to stay by the phone. My friends are expecting their third baby and she started having contractions. I have to be ready to baby sit their other children.
Excuses Based Upon:
HEALTH PROBLEMS
I have some huge cysts in my armpits that are killing me. I’ve had this once before. It’s called hidradenitis suppurativa (hi-dra-den-eye-tis-supper-tea-va). I have to call my doctor. The last time that I had this I had to have them drained.
My psoriasis is flaring up and I have to go to the dermatologist for some immediate UV light treatments before it gets out of control.
I’ve got something called Menieres (men-ee-airs) disease. When it acts up I get really dizzy and vomit a lot. I have medication that helps but it takes a couple of days to kick in.
Excuses Based Upon:
PET PROBLEMS
I was pet-sitting my neighbor’s ferret and the damn thing just ran out the door. I have to go find it.
My dog dislocated his hip. He has done this before. He's limping around and crying. I have to bring him to the vet.
Call Back-Stalls
TO BE USED IF YOU NEED TIME TO LOOK-UP AN EXCUSE
A bird just flew in the window. Let me call you back later.
My toilet is overflowing I have to call you right back.
I just sprayed some window cleaner into my eye. I’ll have to call you back.
I just stubbed my damn toe. I'll call you back in a minute.
Off-The-Wall Excuses
TO BE USED IF YOU NEVER WANT TO HEAR FROM THEM AGAIN
There are a couple of cops at the door. They want to ask me a couple of questions about some break-ins around the neighborhood. By the way, I told them I was with you last Thursday. I'd appreciate it if you back me up.
I’m taking a course in painting with bodily fluids. I am amazed at the variety of colors that are available.
I accidentally stuck my tongue in an electric outlet and I got a nasty shock. I'm just going to take it easy for a while.
